    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Peter Vecsey thinks Lawrence Frank must has some neat blackmail material on Rod Thorn. Otherwise, he asks how does Frank keep his job? The Post columnist, in so many words, suggests the Nets aren’t well enough prepared, look listless and can’t win on the road. He notes the Spurs arrived in New Jersey early Sunday morning yet the Nets didn’t try to run them off the court. ”Where was the sense of desperation?”

    Even aside from its accurate bewilderment, this was one of Vescey's more coherent columns.

    Only positive about Frank is his age.

    Eventually that will go.

    i was hoping eddie jordan would have been fired earlier this year so we could have nabbed him up, how sweet would it be if you could trade coaches

    First of all, nice sig Joker. That's what you get for becoming a Mavs fan [​IMG]

    Second of all, I'm pleased to see that someone else shares my views that Frank doesn't do a good enough job off the court; only on certain nights does it look like the team is prepared to play 4 quarters.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Joey FistPump @ Mar 4 2008, 12:56 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>On the real though...I would love to see Frank fired at the end of the season and replaced with this man:

    Elston Turner

    He's been an assistant under Rick Adleman for several years and could help us to adapt a similar offensive style like that of the Houston Rockets.</div>

    Yea, im not sure how Thorn can honestly say he is doing a good job and "He's our guy". I'll place blame when needed and yea it's not all Frank's fault, a lot of blame has to be placed on the crappiness of our outside shooting as well as the failure of Thorn in being able to produce a reliable shooter year after year. However, something is wrong /w Frank's system. No matter how completely inept our bigs are at scoring i have never seen a team, outside of maybe milwakee, that only threw the ball to bigs in the post a hand full of times per game. You have to at least keep a team honest and throw it down. The offence just looks clusterfucked all the time, and for the love of god can frank work on perimeter defence?

    I think there's no question at all that Lawrence Frank is better at his job than Peter Vescey is at his.
